Terrible tires with lots of vibration.

Toyota dealer says nothing wrong mechanically. It's the tire integrity. Car shakes at 45mph until the car and tires warm up. Shakes terribly at 70+ mph on my 2014 Toyota Camry. I'm going to drive them until Spring 2024 and replace them with a known brand tire.

Cheap Decent Tires

Obviously brand new they were good with traction and tread . With normal driving habits they wore pretty fast I feel . Also the place I got them shipped to and put on was a terrible shop and my experience with them made me not want to go back there ever again . Broke the studs which they made me pay for just the put the tires on . Which they didn't balance or properly fill with air . Had to go back and had a hard time with them doing things the right way and I feel like that probably didn't help with the life of the tires . Overall I guess they're tires , they do what tires do .

A year later and still great

Great tire for the price. Rides smooth and quiet on the highway and local roads. Haven't really had any snow in MD since getting them but they been great in the rain so I think they'll hold whenever we get enough snow to drive in. Definitely buying another set.

Extremely Quiet!!

We haven't had these long but the difference in noise was huge. Honda CRV's are known for road noise, even in our EXL model. But these really improved the situation. Seem like great tire so far and at a great price!

So far, so good

Good grip wet and dry. A little high pitch whine but not annoying. Look nice. Too many other tires with excessive, hard to clean sidewall ribs and design.
